Bears move on from coach Matt Eberflus!​


Before this season, the Chicago Bears had never fired a coach during a season, a fact they were proud of.

They've also never experienced some of the late-game coaching fiascos they've had this season, especially what happened on Thanksgiving with everyone watching.

Eberflus will take a final timeout from the Detroit Lions loss into his next job. A final-minute debacle, in which the Bears let about 25 seconds run off the clock instead of calling a timeout in a 23-20 loss to the Lions, was the end of the Bears' patience. Eberflus met the media Friday morning and was fired shortly after, per multiple reports. It's the first time the Bears have fired a head coach during a season.

I’ve been saying he should be fired especially after listening to his post game presser yesterday. He seemed to have no problem with the clock management at the end of the game. That may have been the worst clock management I’ve ever seen. Can’t imagine him ever getting a HC job again in the NFL.

I was dumbfounded watching that unfold. Absolutely, Eberflus was ultimately responsible, but I doubt he expected Williams to waste all the time he did. Yes, he’s a rookie, but he’s certainly been playing QB for a number of years at other levels.
